I watched Kekkaishi in middle school and thought it was so cool. I've been trying to Google it forever but forgot the name. It's a nice coincidence it pops up here.

Fun fact about S-cry-Ed, it’s by the same director as Code Geass, and the director said in a magazine interview once, that Geass and S-Cry-Ed (and his other show infinite Ryvius) are a part of a trilogy. Not a trilogy in the “same universe” way. But a trilogy in theme: they all explore a different type of society. Geass and S-Cry-Ed also have similar themes of discrimination

Kekkaishi holds a very special place in my heart, I proudly own the Complete series. Its an "Under the Radar/Less talked about today" series that I really enjoy & is a pretty fun series overall (S/O's to its ENG & JP voice casts)! When it was first airing on Adult Swim, towards the start of my high school years, my Uncle started to invite me to hang out & spend the weekends with him. We both had watching anime & gaming as hobbies so we always had a special connection in regards to these things. Friday & Saturday nights was always a good time. We first caught Kekkaishi when it was first airing & we were both pretty hooked on it. He unexpectedly & unfortunately passed earlier this year, which was a massive shock to me & my family. Kekkaishi was a series we both really enjoyed so I definitely plan on doing a much needed re-watch this year in honor of him. R.I.P Uncle, see you on the other side.

I actually finished a full rewatch of Paranoia Agent about two months ago on Crunchy Roll. Satoshi Kon's work was always excellent, and this show was truly a gem. The problem was if you missed certain episodes, you were basically out of the loop until you could catch it again. Thankfully that's not an issue these days, but when it first aired, that was immensely frustrating. Paranoia Agent had some interesting themes around taking responsibility for oneself/relationships/job/etc. and the anxieties (Lil' Slugger) that can plague us from avoiding said responsibility; it's still quite resonant with a modern audience. In hindsight, it's funny to hear Sam Riegel as Lil' Slugger and Liam O'Brien as the younger detective, given their close friendship today. I wonder if it was this show or another show that really cemented their relationship.

Man, I remember everything on this list but that first one, Pilot Candidate. I think Blue Gender scarred me in ways I still haven't fully realized, though still remember fondly. If I remember correctly, S-Cry-ed's name comes from its manga. It's a big thing that's revealed late in the series that plugs into the Alter ability. A fun show, and manga. Witch Hunter Robin was great, definitely worth a rewatch. Paranoia Agent too, that one was a trip.

G4 TV (formerly the International Channel) would also run the “Crest of the Stars” franchise, “Serial Experiments Lain”, “Gatekeepers”, and a few other bizarre series.

I remember watching pilot candidate on a chanel called locomotion, but it was short lived and I was a religious kid who wasn't allowed to watch anime, but I caught short glimpses while channel surfing. I clearly remember the scen of the cat girl being embarrassed by having her hat knocked off and some of the goddesses, but i didn¿t watch the show when I grew up because I had it confused with evangelion, wich also aired on locomotion at the time. So that was about 20 years ago, and now thanks to youI can finally watch it knowing I wasn't crazy for imagining a cat girl wearing a hat was in that show.

The catgirl especially stuck out since it felt like a random design choice. Once her ears were revealed, I don't recall it being a major factor again outside of just being a design choice.

I think Locomotion aired many shows that were shown on [adult swim] in the U.S., shows like Cowboy Bebop, Candidate for Goddess? Super Milk Chan, Wolf's Rain, Blood+, Death Note, Bleach, among others, were shown in Locomotion, which eventually became Animax later, in Latin America. The way more mature anime was broadcasted in Latin America was weird in the 2000s, due to economic problems there weren't as many shows dubbed like in the late 90s, and the quality of dubs differed a lot depending if the show was dub in Mexico or Venezuela I personally think things improved a lot in the mid 2010s when streaming made anime much more accessible, we now have much more anime dubbed than before

I NEVER forgot Super Milk Chan (literally will do the random intro song or shout "you dumbass!" to this day with my sisters), Witch Hunter Robin (my favorite anime; I have a shirt and DVDs with film slides included in them), and Paranoia Agent (my middle sister's favorite anime). I shockingly didn't know about or get to see the April Fool's Day thing with Witch Hunter Robin, so that was awesome that you included it in the video. These animes and Toonami animes were a huge part of my teen years. Another good one I was surprised didn't at least get mentioned alongside Witch Hunter Robin was Wolf's Rain. These two shows back to back were amazing. Then let's not forget . Hack//Sign who never gets credit for doing first what SAO essentially stole as its plot. The theme song and characters were so cool.

Moribito is severely underrated, it may have a average plot, but that average plot was well executed. I love the action, lore, characters and more. You call it filler episodes, but I disagree, those episodes gave room for the audience to digest what was going on and gain depth on the characters. Like the episode when chagoon beats the scammers, it shows his intellect and how he was fostering an understanding for the common of his father’s kingdom. Again a criminally underrated show. And with the info that you just gave in the messy broadcast, I can see why a lot of ppl don’t know much about it.
